I met a girl on a Friday night
Ran 'em out then she caused a fight
Started heading for the exit door
I never made it off the floor

I'm more a lover than the fighting type
I never claim to be the great white hype
I'd rather have a broken heart
Than have my body torn apart

But I believe, I believe
I believe in something
I believe, I believe
I believe in running
Run, run, run, run

I remember back in school
I always had to play the fool
If ever there were choosing sides
I would always be denied

If I was waiting for the bus
There always seemed to be a fuss
I could never walk alone
Or I was in a danger zone

But I believe, I believe
I believe in something
I believe, I believe
I believe in running
Run, run, run, run

Well, Daddy always said believe in something
I believe in staying alive
When it comes to blows, I ain't worth nothing
'Cause I believe in love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love

Fast forward almost twenty years
I found a girl that's so sincere
She wouldn't trade me for another guy
I'll never leave her and I'll tell you why

You see it started on a Friday night
She ran her mouth and she caused a fight
She started swinging and she cleared the floor
I ran away with her forever more

But I believe, I believe
I believe in something
I believe, I believe
I believe in loving

You know I'll never let you go away
You know I'll never let you go away
I believe, I believe
I believe in something
